An Amazon senior leader says to think very carefully before relocating for a new job — you may regret it

• Brandon Southern is a senior leader at Amazon and former head of analytics at eBay and GameStop.
• He writes that you should be careful when considering relocating for a job. 
• The company you're relocating for may not appreciate the sacrifice you made, especially during layoffs. 

If you're considering relocating for a job, you might want to think twice.

With company in-office work mandates on the rise, many current employees are being asked to relocate to different cities to maintain employment. As a senior leader at Amazon, I don't think that this is necessarily a bad thing because working in the office can increase your career growth potential.
